With the rebirth of the 800 series, master luthier Andy Powers sought to highlight the distinctive characteristics and unique acoustic voice of each different body shape. The 800 Series reaches levels of quality rarely seen in acoustic guitar construction. Featuring beautiful sound from a beautiful 12-string, exquisite Taylor appointments, and unsurpassed amplification, this 856ce Grand Symphony is absolute 12-string perfection.

Beautiful Sound from a Beautiful 12-StringHarnessing the full-spectrum of sound from rosewood, the expressive Taylor 856ce 12-string is the perfect mixture of power, balance, and crystal-clear articulation. A Sitka spruce top combined with Advanced Performance bracing and tone-enhancing Relief Rout gives the 856ce a richer, sweeter sound with more low-end than ever before. The 856ce will give you the full response that you'd expect from a larger-body 12-string, so you can strum chords and attain a thick, powerful response when flatpicking or playing fingerstyle arrangements. For a beautiful glossy luster without sacrificing tonal response, the body of the 856ce is dressed up in a 3.5 mils full-gloss finish that's over 40 percent thinner.

Exquisite Taylor AppointmentsThis tastefully appointed 856ce Grand Symphony makes use of some of the finest materials available. The body, peghead, fingerboard and heelcap are all bound by pale maple. A matching pale maple back strip adds a nice aesthetic touch. To showcase the rosewood-rich heritage of the 800 series, as well as the wood's natural beauty, the 856ce is adorned with stunning rosewood accents which include rosewood trim along the top edge, a gorgeous rosewood pickguard that's perfectly matched with the back and sides, and a stunning green abalone rosette outlined with rosewood.

Unsurpassed AmplificationTaylor spares no expense with their 800 Series. That means that with all the beautiful construction and excellent sound quality, this guitar can be plugged in and played out. This Grand Symphony 12-string is outfitted with Expression System 2 electronics, a high-quality pickup/preamp combo that is great for studio or live work. With an innovative undersaddle pickup design from Taylor, you'll have all the sound of each of the 12 strings flowing through your sound system.
